Its better than being on the streets or back in texas with all the transphobia there. I hate not having a bathroom that’s mine, and I really hate all the eco-sinks every bathroom has.
Since living in my car, my sense of white guilt has skyrocketed. I have so many interactions with police because they just wanna check on me, but I haven’t had a single “bad” experience yet and I know thats because I’m white.
Its not going to be forever, but it was the best way to start living as my true self and despite all the struggles I don’t think I’d do it any differently.
If you are in a position to do so, I have more of my story on my gofundme that I recently set up.
Just as an aside, I’ve really only had 1 negative experience with a cop and have met many great cops as of late. I’m a Texan, and I’m definitely not white. I wanted to mention this because even though police forces as institutions have huge issues, the people in them are just as varied as everybody else. I doubt it’s just your race - your area probably has plenty of good apples.
Anyway, I hope stuff gets better! Hopefully you’ll get the treatment(s) you need and can find a stable living situation soon.
More of a reason for me to stay and vote. I don’t plan on having children soon, and me leaving the state won’t make it any better for other Texans who can’t leave even if they need to.
Regardless, even if I can’t make the state better for women or LGBT+ people, there’s always a different group I can make it better for.

I’m sure. I am in the twin cities though, so its pretty verified that they aren’t awesome here.
Thanks! You should leave texas, its slowly chewing its own foot off.
Nah, I’d rather make it better. Outside of what’s politicized, I think we have potential.
Maybe, but it just isn’t safe for women or us gays/trans, especially when it comes to healthcare.
